My wife and I purchased a Malibu oceanfront property at Marisol through Mitch Hagerman, who was the Director of Marketing and Sales for that development company at the time. I originally found the Marisol project online through searching for Malibu land for sale and Malibu lots for sale on Google. I later found out that Mitch created a comprehensive Google ad-words campaign which is the reason Marisol kept popping up on all my online “Malibu land for sale” and “Malibu lots for sale” searches. Once I clicked into the Malibu property website Mitch and his team at Marisol created, I was immediately impressed with the quality of the Malibu property offering from the professional quality of the photography and graphic design of the website. The online marketing platform Mitch created was very impressive and the initial reason I found and was attracted to Marisol when searching for an oceanfront lot in Malibu. All of the marketing materials and collateral Mitch developed and created for Marisol to sell their Malibu oceanfront properties, including the website, video, and hard copy brochures are world class and a big reason we were initially drawn to inspect the Malibu oceanfront lots for sale available at Marisol. Once I requested additional information about the project and chose to visit the Malibu properties in person, I found Mitch to be responsive and professional and extremely helpful during our due diligence period leading up to our purchase. Even after the transaction closed, Mitch was also helpful in assisting us in the process of selecting an architect and contractor to build our Malibu beach house there. Now that Mitch has moved from Marisol to form his own brokerage, I am using Mitch as a broker to identify commercial acquisition opportunities for my commercial real estate company and I would also use Mitch in the future to assist us in Malibu or other greater Los Angeles residential property transactions and we would recommend Mitch to others. When our new home is constructed at Marisol, we will list our Manhattan Beach home for sale and we plan on using Mitch as our listing agent. Mitch is a rare breed of brokers that has strong marketing capability, a thorough understanding of online marketing, he is a likable and professional salesperson, and he has a global understanding of all facets of real estate that goes way beyond simply buying or selling a home. “

“We contracted with Mitch to serve as Director of Sales and Marketing for MariSol Malibu, our exclusive 80-acre high end residential project. As a new brand with nothing comparable in our area, we had to create a market and expose our brand. The strategies that Mitch employed and the initiatives he created were novel, cost conscious and effective, resulting in MariSol’s acceptance in the marketplace as Malibu’s finest luxury homebuilding opportunity. In addition, Mitch arranged spec construction financing for one of our homes at a time when that product was virtually nonexistent and provided invaluable contributions to our sales efforts, allowing us to achieve greater than expected results. Mitch is an experienced, smart and tireless real estate professional who will develop effective strategies enabling his clients to overcome hurdles in achieving their goals."

Mitch is affable, friendly, and professional. I was completely impressed with the time he took to show me real estate and his knowledge of the market. He is a great guy and obviously enjoys what he does. I would highly recommend Mitch if you want to look at residential or commercial real estate in Malibu, Santa Monica, or anywhere in the great LA area.

Mitch found me an amazing opportunity which wasnt even on the market! He was able to make me feel very secure that I was purchasing exactly what the seller was representing to us by his due dilligence. I would highly recommend any serious buyer/seller to work with Mr. Hagerman because his finger is on the pulse of the market and he is very dependable and trustworthy. He never said anything which he did not deliver on. Thank you Mitch for helping me realize my dream home.

Working with Mitch Hagerman was a great experience - from start to finish. He's an absolute pro and his knowledge of the markets we were looking at was fantastic.

Everyone always says that buying a house is stressful. That absolutely wasn't the case with Mitch. He got us viewings at the places we were interested in, had solid relationships with the other realtors, and fought to get us the best deal possible. He's a great negotiator and always gave us his honest opinion.

This was our first home-buying experience, and Mitch made it a breeze. He has a great attitude, excellent market knowledge, and strong business relationships. We would absolutely use him again.

I would highly recommend Mitch Hagerman and his team at Venice Beach Real Estate to anyone looking to lease or purchase Marina del Rey real estate or Venice Beach real estate. I began my search about a month ago looking for a home in Marina del Rey but I was also open to other neighboring beach communities. My timeframes that I needed to find a Marina del Rey home was short and my schedule is very busy. Mitch and his team worked around my schedule and were available anytime I needed them. They spent significant time showing me everything available in the Manhattan Beach, Marina Peninsula, Venice Beach and Santa Monica areas.

Unsatisfied with what was on the market for lease, Mitch spent the extra effort to contact listing agents of Marina del Rey homes for sale and inquire if a lease might be a possibility.

It was this creative approach that landed my ideal Marina del Rey home right on the sand in the Marina Peninsula where Mitch negotiated a great lease when the Marina del Rey home was not even on the market for lease. He was further able to negotiate a short term lease at 6 months which was important to me as I intend to purchase a home in the next 6 months and I didn’t want to be locked into a lease for an entire year and potentially miss the market to buy in 6 months time.

Mitch is very knowledgeable about the entire LA coastal areas, he is professional, a good negotiator and I definitely recommend him as a real estate broker.

He has great communication skills, is very prompt, and genuinely cares about the best interest of his clients.

I definitely plan on working with Mitch to represent me in the purchase of a home in the Marina del Rey / Venice Beach area in six months time.
